Standard Bank - No settlement letter but demanding R77!!

Finally changed banks and closed my Std Bank cheque account. Requested, a week ago, for a settlement letter to pay up and close a very old and unused garage card; still having a very small balance. I don't even know the account number anymore. A week later... no letter received... have emailed them... and yet everyday since they have been sending me 'urgent reminders' sms's to pay the arrears of R77!!

Received a call now from Pinky Raphulu from card division … she verified who I was … then went on to tell me I’m in arrears … and wanting payment!!!
Soo this matter is NOT being attended to as you think it is.
Please inbox me privately the contact details to the CEO’s office … perhaps he will have this matter resolved.
